Oasis

Everywhere around me there is chaos.

But not here

not on Delaware Lane

its sunny and warm, everywhere there are children playing

sidewalks are covered in chalk and driveways are littered with discarded bicycles

It smells like rain and fresh cut grass

This home is our haven in a world full of madness

Toothless grins and the sounds of belly laughter fill my heart

Piles of  homework and books....there are toys strewn about

Life happens here

When the day was long and my spirit feels broken

When I feel about to fall off the edge

I come home

 And time stops and there is nothing but *us*

and I drink in this love, this life, MY wonderul, messy, happy life

Its my own personal fountain of youth.... and I am renewed.
